    Reached out to Jack on Cameo to see if he would do a gender reveal video for my brothers party. He went above and beyond in a full pink suit and blue tie and absolutely crushed it. He announced it as if he were calling a game. One of a kind nothing but class.

    a lot of people dislike jack because he's such a homer, and yes he is. but isn't that such a great thing? with how serious everything is in life, and how serious and high stakes hockey games can be, it's such a nice thing to have an announcer who can joke around and make things goofy and entertaining giving you a laugh from time to time
    thanks for all the funny moment jack! 🎉

If ever, someone can be called a true Bruin, you would be one of them.

    Whether or not you are a Jack Edwards fan, it's hard to not to feel bad about his situation. Sometimes just listening you don't see how much he is struggling to get the right words out, but when you see him on camera you can see it in his face how hard he has to work just to complete a sentence. Hopefully they can diagnose the problem.
